Is there a way to automatically unlock kwallet when you log into a KDE

session

with the same login?

you want kwallet to open without having to provide a password the first time? just assign a blank one.

That is exactly what I do not want: a blank password. I'd like to see a PAM plugin that allows to open kwallet with a KDE login, I guess a PAM plugin would be the way to go?

Similar to what GNOME does? There's a GNOME pam plugin that opens automatically your GNOME keyring - AFAIK it needs to have the same password as your normal password,

For KDE3 there was pam_kwallet. This required a patch of the DCOP interface kwalletd, which was rejected by the KDE people, but included in openSUSE. I have asked for an pam_kwallet for KDE4 on the kde-devel list some time ago and got some patches from Pierre Ducroquet to try. I have got them somewhat working, but not really reliable. It looks like some timing issues. It does not work if it tries to contact kwalletd via DBUS too early and it cannot dissmiss a password dialog already opened by some application (knetworkmanager for example), if it contacts kwalletd too late. If this feature should go into 11.2 at least the kwalletd DBUS interface should be added (no new strings added), but I fear it is already too late for this. The pam related part can be added using some BS repo later (openSUSE:Contrib or so).
